Dunedin City Council Seeks Contractor for Museum Plant Room Redevelopment

This RFT is a reissue of Rfx 26954150, which was cancelled due to incomplete information to allow tenders to respond appropriately. This information has now been obtained and is included in the tender documents. Dunedin City Council (DCC) provides arts and culture institutions for the benefit of the Dunedin community and visitors as part of Dunedin�s arts and culture strategy (Ara Toi Otepoti � Our Creative Future).

Toitu Otago Settlers Museum (Toitu) is a museum of social history dedicated to telling the story of the people of Dunedin and the surrounding area. At Toitu, there is currently a plant room that is not in use which DCC wants to redevelop into a useable space and reconfigure access so that the room can be accessed from the main foyer.

We want to partner with a skilled and experienced main contractor to undertake the physical works of redeveloping the plant room in an effective, safe and sustainable way.

We want to partner with a supplier that has experience in undertaking physical works in public facilities, who can assist us in delivering a modernised room that can be further developed into an audio-visual experience for the Dunedin community and visitors to Dunedin. We need require a supplier that can deliver the works within DCC�s timeframes.

The design works are already completed, we only require a supplier to undertake the physical construction works. The design and installation of the AV experience/ equipment is not included in the scope of this procurement and will be sourced separately at a later stage.
